I am currently having the same issue and I do not share my xbox. I've tried reinstalling the explorers pack, another character and even hard resetting my xbox. I emailed them the issue and have yet to receive a reply.

I spent the better part of an hour and a half on hold with them this morning. Theyve been swamped with calls, but like i said, they are aware and actively working on a fix for this. Ill forward any emails i get on the matter as i get them if that helps.

Pre ordered imperial edition, and sharing game on console. Only I can access the downloadable content even when installed. The person who cannot access the content , Aer1ekah (gamertag) cannot access. Troubleshooting done: Reinstallation of game and additional content, and removal of saved content from local device and cloud service. Other games allow for sharing even with DLC, why not this? Has not worked, please help.

I found this...

So no, the Explorer's pack and Imperial Edition perks CANNOT be shared on a console.

Thankfully Xbox understood our concerns (and, by the way the guy talked, MANY others as well) and we have a full refund. I am NOT purchasing those 2 dlc packs again when no other game I've played on the Xbox one has had this issue.

Good luck everyone, and I hate replying with such bad news

i having the same issue. i am hoping that this isn't the case. we both have this downloaded onto our xbox profiles and it should be able to recognize it. i think it is just a bug that needs to be worked out. fingers crossed anyway.

Herp derp people getting upset when they are sharing a mmorpg that's set up for one account

I pre downloaded the £70 addition through Xbox store and it all worked fine for me

Because being a D-bag about the situation helps to solve it...

Exactly.

ZOS & Microsoft have both stated they are aware of the problem & are actively seeking a fix.

I've never heard of bonus preorder items not being account locked... If they weren't, on games with server profiles (every multiplayer), all you'd have to do to get them is log in on the console of someone who bought the extras, then they'd be loaded into your profile. That would defeat the purpose of having exclusives like that because they wouldn't be exclusive to the people who preordered and most people wouldn't bother buying them because they could just get them for free from a friend. You want to share content, share an account, otherwise you are an individual customer. In this game especially sharing a single account for a family shouldn't be an issue given how many characters you can have.

I am a console player and therefore have no idea what happens on computer games, but I have bought large numbers of console games both digitally and on disc.

I pre- ordered and purchased the DKS2 collectors edition for the Xbox 360 and all of the weapons etc relating to that edition were available on multiple accounts on that console.

Similarly I bought digital copies of the Expansion packs separately for Destiny on the PS4. They are available on multiple accounts on the same console.

Indeed I have never purchased games, both in digital and disk versions, of which I have substantial numbers, or DLC's to which this did not apply.

The only game that this has happened on is ESO. If this is the case then it certainly was not made clear when I pre-ordered the game, and I would have had second thought about the purchase as I think it is a rip-off. I appreciate that any 'crown purchases' can only be applied to one account but the original Imperial Edition is not bought by crowns.

In fact if I can ever find the statement issued by ESO, which I will post here, they stated that the ESO game would not be code tied to any particular account. But this is exactly what appears to have happened

Of course this is an issue judging by the number of people posting here.I have been in contact with both ESO and PS4 and am awaiting their replies.

well that is if your sharing the game with family or friends.

Thank you for this, but I wish they said how we can purchase the explorer and imperial because on the systems it's showing its already installed.
